Application

Given this configuration, you should achieve the following outcome after completing this page:

Configuration
Environment	`pirates-dev`
AppName	`too-tikki`
Outcome
ECR	`pirates-dev-too-tikki`
URL	`https://too-tikki.pirates-dev.oslo.systems/`

Step 1: Add and configure the `app` package

repo-iac/environments/dev/

ok pkg add app app-too-tikki
cd app-too-tikki

Update package-config.yml to enable the components you need. You can use the following configuration to set up a minimal application running on nginx with an internet-facing address:

repo-iac/environments/dev/app-too-tikki/package-config.yml

AppName: "too-tikki"

  AppGitHubRepo: pirates-apps
  IacGitHubRepo: pirates-iac
  AssumableCdRole: false

Step 2: Install the package

repo-iac/environments/dev/app-too-tikki/

ok pkg install

Step 3: Initialize and apply the `app` stacks

Applications are separated into two stacks when creating them.

The first stack is the data stack, which contains ECR and data-related resources, this must be applied first.

The second stack is the application stack, which contains the load balancing set up, ECS service, security groups and more for your application.

repo-iac/environments/dev/app-too-tikki-data/

terraform init
terraform apply

repo-iac/environments/dev/app-too-tikki/

terraform init
terraform apply

Step 4: Verify

Verify in the AWS CLI

To verify that ECR is correctly set up, run the following command:

aws ecr describe-repositories | jq '.repositories[].repositoryName'

The output list should contain the name of the ECR repository.

Verify in the AWS console

Login to the AWS console and navigate to ECR. Select Repositories in the left-hand menu.

The list should contain the name of the ECR repository.

Verify in the browser

Go to https://too-tikki.pirates-dev.oslo.systems/ and you should see the default Nginx page. Change URL according to your environment and application name.

Commit your files

At this stage it is a good idea to commit your files.
